Bangladesh and Pakistan to Resume Direct Flights After Decade-Long Gap

Biman Bangladesh Airlines will resume direct flights between Dhaka and Karachi on January 29, restoring air connectivity after a decade. Initially operating twice weekly, the service aims to provide a more convenient travel option than current indirect routes via Middle Eastern hubs. This development occurs amid improving diplomatic and trade relations between Bangladesh and Pakistan, following political changes in Bangladesh in 2024. Overflight permissions for Indian airspace remain unconfirmed.
